The Duck Who Lost His Quack

Once there was a duck who was playing soccer with a word pretending that it was his ball. The word was QUACK. Whenever he was playing with his QUACK word it went into the air and broke. The letters were all over the farm! So, the duck went out to look for them. He asked his friends if they knew where the letters were.

First, he went to ask his friend pig if he knew where one of his letters was. Pig said, "Yes. One popped right into my pen. Here's the letter Q," and he handed it to the duck. And duck said, "Thanks."

Next, he went to go ask his friend horse if he knew where one of his letters was. Horse said, "Yes. One landed right in the barn. Here's the letter U," and he handed it to the duck. And duck said, "Thanks."

Next, duck took a visit to mother hen. Duck asked if she knew where one of his letters was. Mother Hen said, "Yes. One flew right into the hen house. Here's the letter A," and she handed it to the duck. And duck said, "Thanks."

Then duck asked his friend billy goat if he knew where one of the letters was. Billy goat said, "Yes. One rolled straight into one of my tin cans. Here's the letter C," and he handed it to the duck. And duck said, "Thanks."

Duck only had one more letter left. He wondered where it was. So he went to ask his friend the cow. "Cow, have you seen one of my letters?" And cow said, "Yes. A K bounced right on my back while I was eating in the pasture. Here it is," and he handed it to the duck. And duck said, "Thanks."

So, duck found all his letters! He put them one, two, three, four, five altogether and got his soccer word ball back. He was so happy! He called all five of his friends over to play a game of soccer with the word QUACK. And then their farmer came in and fainted when he saw them.

The end.
